Blind Thrust Fault 2


Blind Thrust Fault 2 : A thrust fault that does not rupture all the way to the ground surface. Movement along the fault produces uplift in the form of an anticlinal fold, but a clear or continuous surface rupture is not recognised. Many Quaternary blind thrust faults are thought to be present in the Murray, Gippsland and Otway basins. An example of a known blind thrust fault is the Rosedale Fault underlying the Rosedale Monocline in eastern Gippsland, Victoria
